I have almost certainly gone way too high with 5.2 but actually if I was in the 3-4c range I'd be hopeful still as if there's one thing winter is good at nowadays it's "pulling defeat from the jaws of victory" when it comes to delivering a decent cold month.

Many more of those kinds of temps and your 5.2c very much comes into play.

It would be a hell of a comeback but who knows.

I do think that since 2009 Jan has somewhat bucked the winter warming trend, seems very easy to get a ridiculously warm Dec or Feb but Jan has very seldom been more than a shade above average in that time

Unusual -0.4 (-3.9C) here currently - other places must be a fair bit lower.

A steady march upwards now... possibly for the rest of the month

This is proving a rather strenuous month for monitoring CET prospects in relation to estimates. Potential for a return of colder weather from the east was there, then reduced markedly, only to start making a pronounced return these past 24 hours.

Key events transpire 4-5 days from now. We're probably a couple of days away from knowing with confidence whether an easterly will be at least 'knocking on the door' early next week.

1.5c mean here so far. Yes rising but no especially mild weather forecast for here and there is the potential for something much colder later in the month. Below average looks likely.
